1.  Introduction

    DNS messages are delivered using UDP or TCP communications.  While
    most DNS transactions are carried over UDP, some operators have been
    led to believe that any DNS-over-TCP traffic is unwanted or
    unnecessary for general DNS operation.  When DNS over TCP has been
    restricted, a variety of communication failures and debugging
    challenges often arise.  As DNS and new naming system features have
    evolved, TCP as a transport has become increasingly important for the
    correct and safe operation of an Internet DNS.  Reflecting modern
    usage, the DNS standards declare that support for TCP is a required
    part of the DNS implementation specifications [RFC7766].  This
    document is the equivalent of formal requirements for the operational
    community, encouraging system administrators, network engineers, and
    security staff to ensure DNS-over-TCP communications support is on
    par with DNS-over-UDP communications.  It updates [RFC1123],
    Section 6.1.3.2 to clarify that all DNS resolvers and recursive
    servers MUST support and service both TCP and UDP queries and also
    updates [RFC1536] to remove the misconception that TCP is only useful
    for zone transfers.

This document updates RFCs 1123 and 1536.  This document requires the
operational practice of permitting DNS messages to be carried over
TCP on the Internet as a Best Current Practice.  This operational
requirement is aligned with the implementation requirements in RFC
7766.  The use of TCP includes both DNS over unencrypted TCP as well
as over an encrypted TLS session.  The document also considers the
consequences of this form of DNS communication and the potential
operational issues that can arise when this Best Current Practice is
not upheld.

This document is a product of the Domain Name System Operations Working 
Group of the IETF.
